General Notes:
1.Construction documents are valid for a single use at the project location and shall not be reused, copied, or reproduced without
written approval of the registered design professional in reasonable charge.
2.The contractor is responsible for the methods, means and sequence of all structural erection except when specifically noted
otherwise in the construction documents. The contractor shall provide temporary shoring and bracing, providing adequate
vertical and lateral support during erection. Shoring and bracing shall remain in place until all permanent members are placed
and all final connections are completed.
3.The contractor agrees that, in accordance with generally accepted construction practices, the contractor will be required to
assume sole and complete responsibility for job site conditions during the course of construction of the project, including safety
of all persons and property. This requirement shall be made to apply continuously and not be limited to normal working hours.
The contractor further agrees to defend, indemnify and hold owner and engineer harmless from any and all liability, real or
alleged, in connection with the performance of work on this project, exempting liability arising from the sole negligence of
engineer.
4.All existing sizes, dimensions and foundation damage shall be field verified by the contractor and owner prior to construction.
Discrepancies with the construction documents shall be reported to the structural engineer for additional recommendations (if
any).
5.Per the owner's request, the contractor shall stabilize the structure only. No attempt shall be made to lift or plumb the
foundation wall without approval for the owner and structural engineer.
Field Verification:
1.Contractor and Owner shall thoroughly inspect and survey existing structure to verify dimensions, elevations, framing, etc.
which affect the work shown on the drawings.
2.Report any variation or discrepancies to the structural engineer before work proceeding.
Foundation Design:
1.Soil conditions and types shall be verified by a Engineer during excavation.
2.All helical piles, push piers, helical anchor tiebacks, wall anchor tiebacks and connection hardware shall be designed and
installed by supplier, such that they provide the minimum allowable capacities as indicated on the drawings. All capacities
shown on the drawings are unfactored service loads and have not been reduced for live load reductions.
3.Design of individual and continuous footings is based on an assumed maximum allowable bearing pressure of 1500 lbs. per
square foot (dead load plus full live load), placed on the natural undisturbed soil, or compacted structural fill below frost depth.
Steel Helical Piers:
1.Grip TIte: Model GTRDS2875-0203 (round shaft) Helical Pier with FP3BA Retrofit Bracket
2.Install with Pro-Dig X9 torque head to a maximum of 4,800 ft-lbs torque.
3.Pier depth is dependent on depth of bearing soil adequate to provide the specified torque resistance, therefore, depth is not
specified. Pier to be advanced until torque is attained.
4.Installation torque serves as empirical verifications of pier capacity, yielding an onsite load test for each pier. Therefore, soils
testing is not necessary for generating a theoretical capacity.
5.Piers shall be 8” minimum helical piers, installed at locations shown on the plans.
6.It is assumed the each new pier will achieve penetration into bedrock or competent soil, and can be installed to the specified
capacity. Should bedrock or competent soil not be reached within reasonable depth this office should be notified for further
instructions.
7.Contractor is to maintain accurate pier depth and pressure / torque charts for each pier, showing depth and pressure / torque
at each shaft section. Charts shall be filled out in real time during installation, and maintained onsite for engineer review during
inspection. Charts shall be provided to engineer in final form upon completion.
Special Inspections:
1.Special inspections shall be provided per the requirements in the UES Evaluation Report #391, Section 3.3 as well as the
requirements of the 2018 IBC Section 1705.9.

5.All wood in contact with concrete or exposed to weather, shall be pressure treated Douglas Fir-Larch No. 2 or equal.
6.Structural members shall not be cut for pipes, etc. Unless specifically noted or detailed.
Periodic surveys:
1.Periodic surveys of the supported structures should be conducted to assure project success. The Owner should be
responsible for annual surveys certifying project success. We would suggest that a baseline survey be conducted immediately.
The owner shall submit all findings and reports to the Structural Engineer.
2.If vertical movement of the piers is discovered, the piers should be re-pressured. A representative of the Geotechnical
Engineer should be present to observe the re-pressuring. A final report should be provided by the Geotechnical Engineer after
observing the re-pressuring.
Foundation Stabilization:
1.Although observed foundation damage typically does not pose an immediate health and hazard risk, delaying mitigation will
likely make future repairs more difficult and costly. Furthermore, it has been our experience that once a structure begins
moving, it will likely continue to so (unless action is taken) resulting in further settling, heaving, unsightly cracks, doors/widows
not functioning properly and possible foundation wall collapse. The extent and aggressiveness of the foundation repairs should
be carefully considered by the Owner and will depend on their tolerance for risk, the possibility of future damage, and cost.
2.If the owner chooses to do so the foundation could be stabilized only at visibly damaged locations and areas where movement
is concentrated. Although this will address specific situations, it is possible that foundation movements will occur elsewhere.
3.If the Owner chooses to do so, the entire foundation could be mitigated. A general system repair, although more costly, would
greatly reduce the risk of future foundation damage and movement. It is our understanding that the Owner would not like to
pursue this repair option.
Site Drainage:
1.We believe that the moisture around foundation elements must be controlled for the useful life of the building. Lack of proper
drainage is often a contributing factor to foundation damage observed. It is our opinion that site drainage around the structure
must be maintained such that precipitations will quickly drain away. The use of proper slope slabs-on-grade, moisture barriers,
swales and surface/subsurface drainage systems are strongly recommended. Extension should be attached to properly
function downspouts and roof drains discharge a minimum of 10 feet away from the structure.
Site vegetation:
1.We believe that vegetation around the perimeter of structures can eventually lead to foundation movements. Vegetation can
hold moisture in soil and create excessive pressure on the foundation system. In order to reduce the risk, bushes, shrubs and
trees should be carefully removed by an experienced professional. Care should be taken to not further disturb or damage the
existing foundation system.
2.Planters and other surface features which could retain water should be eliminated and properly graded to reduce the possibility
of moisture infiltrating around the foundation. Irrigation systems and excessive moisture adjacent to structures can introduce
unwanted moisture, possibly resulting in settling and or heaving. The Owner should consider removing irrigation systems or
simply not use them.
Disclaimer:
1.In as much as the site review of an existing structure for the purpose of observing the structure conditions requires that certain
assumptions be made regarding existing conditions and because some of these assumptions may not be verifiable without
expending additional sums of money or destroying otherwise adequate or serviceable portions of the building, the Client
agrees that , except for negligence on the part of the Engineer, the Client will hold harmless, indemnify and defend Engineer
from and against any and all claims arising out of the professional services we have provided.
